7 years agoDallas Cowboys Executive Vice President Stephen Jones said the team wants newly-acquired running back/wide receiver Tavon Austin to get "a dozen to two dozen" touches per game. That sound you hear is Rams fans all over the country trying to catch their breath after a bout of laughter. Two dozen touches in a season sounds like too many for Austin, two dozen in a game is almost unfathomable. While it's almost certain that Austin will quickly show he does not deserve to be featured in any offense, Jones' quote shows that the team is serious about at least using Austin in Lance Dunbar's old role. It's not a huge concern for Ezekiel Elliott's value, but Austin could take Elliott off the field on certain third down plays.--David A Marcillo - RotoBaller
